Event description | Two days event, each day counts as a separate race, results are not combined. Saturday – a Middle Distance forest race, in the Bambësch forest 3km from the Luxembourg city centre (Start and Finish area at the Bambësch Leisure Center, Rue de Bridel – exact details will be published in Bulletin 2 before the event, maximum distance from the Parking to Start/Finish area 1km or 20 minutes on foot). New map with valleys with sandstone rocks, dense path network. Sunday – a Long Distance urban race part of the 2021 City Race Euro Tour in orienteering, which will take place in Luxembourg’s Old Town, and the historic Grund and Pfaffenthal areas. The exact location of the competition centre will be published in Bulletin 2 before the event (maximum distance from the Parking to Start/Finish area 1km or 20 minutes on foot). Run in Vauban fortifications and by 21st century EU institutions. Be ready for complex route choices, steep climbs and narrow alleys – find out why Luxembourg is called “the Gibraltar of the North”. New map – double the area used in our previous race in 2017. |
Terrain description | Saturday – near-city forest with a dense network of paths and tracks, predominantly beech forest with some mixed pine and fir tree areas, cut by shallow valleys enclosed sandstone rock-faces. Runability very good to medium. Sunday – streets and parks of the historic city with mostly paved surfaces and stairs, with several park areas. Flat in the Ville Haute (Luxembourg Old Town), with steep slopes to the valley of the Alzette river which flows through the city. |
